Abstract: A vacuum suction cup with an elastomeric body (11) which has an encircling sealing lip (12) on its one side and a device for producing a flow connection with a vacuum source on the other side. The sealing lip (12) encloses a suction space subdivided into a multiplicity of individual sealed-off suction chambers (19). Each suction chamber (19) is provided with at least one connecting passage (22) which connects the respective suction chamber to the vacuum side. Each connecting passage (22) is subdivided into a vertical section (22a) and a horizontally running section (22b). By means of the suction cup, objects with sensitive surfaces, such as newly produced concrete blocks, can be lifted and transported without the surface of the objects sustaining damage.

Abstract: The concrete slab (1) rests, by means of small shuttering boards (7) which remain visible when the construction is completed, on shoulders (6) presented by the beams (2), provided on either side of a narrow portion (2b) of each of the said beams surmounting the main body (2a) of the latter. The portions (2b) are perforated with transverse holes (3) which pass right through and have a diameter which is sufficient for the concrete to penetrate therein and to form sprues therein which provide the join between the said beams and the slab (1), in such a manner that the beams form reinforcement tie rods for the slab and such that the shearing forces are thus absorbed. The concrete sprues passing through the holes (3) are reinforced by metal rods (4) folded into the form of clamps and by straight metal rods (5) extending over the entire length of the slab, passing through all of the construction beams in succession. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the feeding attachment, the periodically swivellable front markers (2) are driven by a non-lockable cam gear (6-10), in which only rigid members of the cam gear (6-10) are effective in the swivelling- away phase of the front markers (2). To lock the sheet feeder in the case of oblique sheets or faulty sheets, catcher hooks (13) are provided which can be moved into their catching position, independently of the cam gear (6-10) of the front markers (2), by a pneumatic short-stroke cylinder (17) which can be controlled by an electropneumatic quick-action solenoid valve (19) operating in dependence on a sheet control device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an insulating container in the region of the longitudinal edge between container bottom and a container side wall, both bottom and side wall being a sandwich construction with cover panels and rigid foam located between the cover panels and bonded to the two said cover panels. The invention is characterised in that both the bottom (1) and the side wall (10) are foamed sandwich panels such that the cover panels (2,3 and 11,12) protrude beyond the rigid foam region, in that the inner cover panels (3,11) of bottom and side wall on the one hand and the outer cover panels (2,12) of bottom and side wall on the other hand are firmly bonded to each other and in that, adjoining thereto, the one-part cavity, bounded by the rigid foam regions of bottom and side wall as well as the cover plates, is completely filled in one operation with a foam of which the components and production conditions correspond to those of the rigid foams of bottom and side wall, so that during foaming the rigid foam components enter into a bond with the rigid foams of bottom and side wall as well as their cover panels (Fig. 3). The invention also shows a bottom longitudinal profile, which permits a particularly rigid connection of a side wall of a container to its bottom panel. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of manufacturing floor coverings from inorganic materials, such as in particular a floating screed, is used to join together prefabricated panels (1), having a peripheral groove (3), by means of springs (5) to form a closed surface. In comparison with a floating screed laid by conventional methods, the use of prefabricated panels (1) dispenses in particular with the setting time of the screed, dependent upon manufacture and material, which previously delayed the progress of construction considerably. In addition, the panels can be examined for their quality before laying. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of controlling the slewing operation of a slewing mechanism for slewing the revolving superstructure of a hydraulic backhoe or the like. The method comprises setting a swing mode selector valve (2) in a driving position to supply a working fluid discharged from a hydraulic pump (1) through a supply-and-discharge line to a hydraulic motor (3) to drive the hydraulic motor for a driving operation, setting one of a pair of relief valves (4a, 4b) provided between the swing mode selector valve and the hydraulic motor, associated with the supply side of the hydraulic motor for a set relief pressure higher than the set relief pressure of a main relief valve (12)  for limiting the pressure in supply-and-dis­charge lines to the set relief pressure of the main relief valve while the hydraulic motor is operating in a driving mode, and setting the other relief valve associated with the discharge side of the hydraulic motor for a set relief pressure lower than the set relief pressure of the main relief valve to limit the pressure in the supply-and-dis­charge line associated with the discharge side of the hydraulic motor to the set relief pressure of the other relief valve while the hydraulic motor is operating in a braking mode. The method brakes the slewing mechanism smoothly to prevent the rapid abrasion of the braking surfaces of the components of the slewing mechanism.

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring the state of a remotely controlled means, e.g. a points drive for the points of a railway, or a signal lamp along a railway, without erroneous monitoring results occuring should the lines between a controlling means and the remotely controlled device be incorrectly connected. The remotely controlled device includes one or more special encoding means (4a, 4b, 4). Each such means gives rise to a pulse pattern which is characteristic for the means in a current which flows through it. It can thus be decided at the controlling means whether a current through it also flows through a given conductor part at the remotely controlled device. 
     In accordance with a first embodiment, one of two different encoding means (4a, 4b) is connected into a current path in response to which of two different states a remotely controlled device assumes. According to a second embodi­ment an encoding means (4) is always connected in series with the remotely controlled device (6), the pulse pattern occuring when the remotely controlled device is supplied with current.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rapid construction method for overhead-carriageway bridges. The method according to the invention comprises especially the positioning of prefabricated concrete elements (8), in the form of portals. These elements (8) are attached to foundation bases (12) in order to form spans (2, 3, 4, 5). These elements (8) are joined by the pouring of a second-phase concrete (17) over the whole of the deck formed by the attached portals (8). By virtue of the method according to the invention, it is possible to produce, for a moderate cost, an overhead passage for an express carriageway (7), whilst greatly reducing disruption to the traffic on this carriageway in comparison with a conventional construction method. <IMAGE>
